Fitted the 400mm front and 380mm rear brakes from the M2cs. The braking performance is just astonishing compared to the standard m2 blue brakes but comes with a trade of adding unsprung weight. I'm waiting for my race brake builder to finish his CCB's for these callipers as the factory ones do crack or damage easily and unless I get the stock ones really cheap, I'll be waiting on him to come up with something at a fraction of the cost.

As a child I always loved cars and I had an extensive hot wheels collection, so when the M factory engineers built and BMW released this baby, my childhood memories came flooding back. Feasting my eyes upon this beauty l was like a kid in the toy store for the first time but it was a little out of reach for me, so when the opportunity came along some years later I pounced like a kitten on a yarn ball. It is fun, exciting and tough looking but I always felt the n54t powerplant was just a slightly optimized variant of the 135i donk and an afterthought especially where the model has a host of parts raided from the e9x M3 parts bin.
